Re: Losing money on players wages
Barkhuizen was a good signing on paper and has shown glimpses but for various reasons, out of position, poor team and maybe a bit of disillusion in with the way last season unfolded, he doesn’t want to be here. It’s unlikely now though that anyone will come for him so is there a way back for him? K...

Re: Barrow vs Walsall Match Thread
Some awful performances this season and that it is up there with the worst of them.
They clearly have no desire to fight for this club.

Re: Crewe Alexandra v Barrow, match thread
[quote=bluebird90 post_id=555692 time=<a href="tel:1768678116">1768678116</a> user_id=381] I really don’t think we’ve yet to fully develop a clear pathway of how we develop as a club. Everything so far, seems to be temporary - whether it’s the stands, the training ground or food stalls. W...

Re: Crewe Alexandra v Barrow, match thread
If anybody thought a manager was going to come in and change something immediately then they’re sadly mistaken. First game today and it will probably be then end of January before we see any managerial impact. What we are seeing is a realistic view of where we are as a club. We don’t have the money ...

Re: Barrow vPNE match thread
Saturday was a shocker but last night was much more promising and we deserved penalties at least. I get amused by the hysteria of football fans. Let's not forget that it quite often happens in a season that a team can be near the top at Christmas-time but finish near the bottom and, likewise, a tea...

Re: The Big Question
Seen them at Carpet World, Travelodge and once behind the Town Hall. I guess it depends on how many there are and what else is on

Re: Barrow vPNE match thread
Far better tonight. Braver going forward. It’d be interesting to try Walker and Cameron together.

Re: Barrow v MK DONS match thread
Whether your budget is 1st or 15th, we should be going out to win every football game. Wild would at times refer to the budget but have the mentality of ‘we’ve got to find a way around that’ and at times that was to out-battle and out-run teams. Evatt had a similar mentality of getting everything f...

Re: Barrow v MK DONS match thread
Money talks in this league, checking online, MK Dons is owned by a Kuwait-based consortium led by Fahad Al Ghanim (owner since August 2024) family wealth of 1.3 billion which is almost enough to buy an astute boat (give or take a few hundred million), no wonder the two players who scored are from t...

Re: Barrow v MK DONS match thread
Andy Whing gave an excellent post match interview after todays game on BBC Radio Cumbria putting things very much into perspective in where we are as a club compared to MK Dons and others and where we need to improve. Link below interview is 48 minutes in. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m002gldb...

Re: Barrow AFCv Carlisle United FC (H) match thread
As much as the football wasn’t pretty, Whing’s gameplan worked and we created numerous chances in the first 20 minutes, but we just don’t have the forwards to put them away. Stockton apart, we seem to get forwards that offer very little. Did Presley even touch the ball when he came on? Campbell was ...

Re: It’s not Good!
‘Those that know the game and have played the game, agree’
So what you’re saying is that the manager, with nearly 250 Premier League appearances, knows what he’s doing and will decide whether we need more.

Re: Mansfield, All to play for.
The warning signs of this have been there for 6 weeks and bit by bit they’ve become a reality. Missing out on the play offs isn’t bad luck, it’s a series of poor performances. The first half v Bradford, the last half hour v Doncaster, the sending off at Gillingham , the performances v Morecambe and ...

Re: 4G pitches
Plenty of free playing pitches in the town, look at Ormsgill playing fields, loads of space and doesn’t get used very often, I don’t see what difference adding 4g would make, but I do remember a while back the club trained at the one at furness college as a one off. Don’t understand some people cri...
